Muscle-ups Are Back!

Went to bed way too late last night, so I’m dragging ass a bit today. Went to the 4pm class.

Warm-up

2 Rounds

1:30 Row

10/10 Bulgarian Split Squats

15 Air Squats

Strength

Back Squat

6×45#

6×115

6×165

6×195

6×215

4x6x235

Felt much better than the 5x5x225# last week that we did after 70 overhead squats.

Conditioning

18:00 EMOM (alt)

5 Muscle-ups

8×60′ Run

10 Burpee Box Jumps (24#)

Before class I did some swinging and my first muscle-up since the Open. Felt good, so figured I’d try them in the workout.

This workout starts as an alternating EMOM and then you turn it into an AMRAP when you fall off the pace. I got a little rest after a set of 5 MU but I fell behind pace after the first run and for the rest of the workout. Was able to get 5 unbroken muscle-ups for my first two rounds and then did 3-2 for the next 3 rounds. I finished up my fifth round a couple of seconds before the 18 minutes ran out. The running sucked! I think the running got to my head and I didn’t push on the burpee boxes; I was jumping up out of the burpee, but then taking 2 steps in to the box instead of jump-jump. The steps are so much slower.
